P P P 1H P 1N P ?

Reversing to 2S systemically promises a 5/6, so while it would be nice to show spades, it is out. Is the onus on me to jump rebid hearts or does 2H do enough?

Scroll down to see partner's hand...

After a 2H rebid, does this hand need to invite?

On hand 1, is it just me or does it seem to have only 11 cards?

The decision on 1 seems to be completely down to the preemption style of the partnership. If this is a 2nd seat vulnerable preempt for you then do it, if not then pass. Hand 2 must come dangerously close to a 1♣ opening for you since you have often said that you upgrade 15s quite aggressively. If you open only 1♥ and showing spades is out then it is hard to see how much more you could have for a 3♥ rebid over 1NT. As Responder I would pass a 2♥ rebid with the given hand.

I think the KT9-7th [not 7222] is as good as a 6 point 6 card preempt, so I think 2♥ on the first is fine.

I agree that the judgement call most to blame is not opening the hand 1♣. I think P-1♥-1NT-2♥-P is fine, but I think a 1♣ opening is probably better.
